St. Gonçalo Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

When the water is very calm, the middle archway is a perfect semicircle, which is then complemented by the reflection in the water to form a full circle. A Roman bridge is said to have stood here in the past, as Amarante is on the Roman road towards Braga and Guimares. In 1790 the bridge was opened to traffic after it had been destroyed by a flood and had to be rebuilt.

Confeitaria da Ponte

Highlight • Cafe

Very nice cafe on the Ponte de São Gonçalo. Here you can find all the local specialties such as Brisas do Tomega, Papos de Anjo, Foguetes or Bolo de S. Gonçalo. In the cafe you can walk to the river side and enjoy the uninterrupted view of the Rio Tamega and the bridge. When the weather is nice there are also outdoor seats.

A bridge with a horizontal deck over three unequal round arches, the central one being the largest. The pillars have triangular buttresses upstream and downstream. The parapet protecting the bridge deck rests on a carved tubular cornice. Crowning the buttresses, four semicircular balconies with stone benches open onto the deck. At each end, the bridge boasts two pairs of faceted Baroque spires resting on small spheres.
